Lubov Leontieva, MD, PhD, associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences, will lead Upstate’s Walk with a Doc event Saturday, May 10 at 9 a.m. at Onondaga Lake Park.

The event begins with a brief presentation by the doctor followed by a walk.

Participants will meet on the grass near the visitor’s center, and everyone walks at their own pace and distance.

Leontieva, whose specialties are psychiatry and neurology, will present Keeping Your Mind Healthy.

The event is free and open to the public.

Walk with a Doc begin in 2005. David Sabgir, a cardiologist based in Ohio, was interested in helping his patients with physical activity. Today, there are more than 500 Walk with a Doc chapters around the world.

Upstate’s chapter meets the second Saturday of each month.
